Running header: RESEARCH RESEARCH 2 Research Topic Mixed racial and cultural groups are growing in the United States. Should each group expect to be treated as a separate entity, or should residents of the United States be considered Americans without the hyphen? Initial Research America is knows and the land of opportunities and this has prompted very many people to join the American society, there is a common saying that America is a nation of immigrants and perhaps this can not be very far from the truth. Form research, you realize that it is difficult to say who a Native American is because most of the Americans have their ancestral roots somewhere else. The fact that the Americans society is made up of diverse people means that there has to be a way of differentiating the various groups and that is why we have terms like African- American , which leads to the question, would there be just American or we should have American-something else? Very year many people come to America as students or through the green card while others come as expatriates and with time, they become permanent citizens, when this happens, they become important contributors of the nations GDP, to many this makes them to be Americans. It is for his reason that a study is required to address this issue. This study will seek to examine these from various perspectives. Proposed Thesis All Americans are equal because they contribute to the nation’s GDP, and they should just be called Americans. References Hellen, J. (2003).Research Methods.
